ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Oct. 15, 2009 - Leon Speakers today introduced its new Axis Series of premium in -ceiling speakers. The Axis speakers are housed in fully sealed, acoustic suspension enclosures that maintain consistent high -quality sound performance regardless of the environment. This addition to Leon's line of custom -built, audiophile -grade loudspeakers rounds out its offering for Living Space Theater™ and creates the possibility of seamlessly integrated 5.1 and 7.1 theater experiences in the modern home.

"The Axis Series is the next step in our new direction as a provider of high -fidelity, immersive custom audio solutions for luxury Living Space and dedicated home theater," said Noah Kaplan, president of Leon Speakers. "These speakers were designed to perfectly complement our line of Horizon™ and Profile™ series speakers for flat -panel displays and simplify the job of integrating theater quality sound in any room of the home without disturbing the overall design."

Focused on the residential market, Leon has taken multiple measures in developing the Axis Series to eliminate sound from traveling into other rooms of a home. In addition to being housed in fully sealed acoustic enclosures, Axis speakers feature Leon's A.R.C. (Acoustic Resonance Control) technology to eliminate unwanted standing waves for smooth, uniform frequency response. The end result is an unmatched audio experience for any environment in the home, from the kitchen to the living room.

Easily installed pre - or post -construction, the Axis in -ceiling speakers are available with pre -construction brackets and perforated metal grills that can be custom painted to match any décor. The Leon Axis speakers are available with 6 -inch or 8 -inch drivers and 1 -inch cloth -dome pivoting tweeters that allow users to control the direction of the sound, thus maximizing the sonic clarity of the room.

The Axis in -ceiling speakers are available now at an MSRP of $395/ea for the Axis AX -61 and $495/ea for the Axis AX -81.
